Abridged…abrégé…seriously?!

Revisado: 12-16-23

The narrative was at times disconnected and odd to follow. Then I realized it is an abridged version…what?!!!
It is already difficult to choose to spend a whole monthly credit on a book in French, because they tend to be much shorter than an English-language novel, so for his one to have been abridged on purpose seems like a double heresy for an audiobook fan.
There were also many erroneous assumptions made about life in the US, notably about Americans abroad, and, this is personal, I’ll admit, about the state of Iowa. Cher Monsieur Labro, prenez la peine de vous rendre sur place la prochaine fois, je vous prie.

Dépaysant et délicieux

Revisado: 05-18-20

The very Bussi-ian plot combined with the remote tropics, big dreams and murder made this a fabulous read.

Character development is the only weak point, although the key to unraveling the mystery. Hard to believe some of the extremes; like the two teenage daughters who are always perfectly obedient and perfectly in sync. Perhaps though, this is a perfect example of cultural discretion.

Merci pour une histoire et une lecture excellentes.

J’ai partagé avec toute ma famille

Revisado: 11-04-18

Merci! J’ai deux filles, trois fils et un mari; le message est une que je trouve d’une nécessité absolu. J’ai aussi partagé le podcast avec une amie africaine qui allait négocier un augment dans la boîte où elle est sous-payée depuis 18 mois. Elle a été formidable! Alors, merci à vous deux.

A positively compelling read

Revisado: 02-06-18

The ONE non-fiction book you will be glad you read today.
The reader is taken on a journey of discovery in a series of highly readable/listenable, life stories and analysis; not in dry, scientific terminology, but in relatable, easy-to-digest chapters. You are confronted with the worst of humanity, followed by out very best selves, and why we are happiest at our best.

Ah; Colette! Une magie de l'imagination, du conte.

Revisado: 11-12-16

Where does Claudine à Paris rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Une des plus grandes joies de la litterature francaise. La lyresie et la genie est sans pareille.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Claudine à Paris?

Lorsqu'elle fait fondre le chocolat dans le feu de cheminee.

Did Isabelle Carré do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Non, pas terriblement, mais je pense bien que l'enregistrement etait fait a un moment dans l'histoire quand on n'vait pas encore terriblement develope une technique en francais pour cet devis.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Oui! puis recommencer de nouveau...

Enchantment Personified

Revisado: 08-08-11

Back in time in Avalon's history, the reader is effortlessly drawn back into the world Zimmer Bradley first created with "The Mists of Avalon." The story moves along magically and if it were in book form, it would be a real page-turner. The characters are human and real as well as fairy and priestess.
